Dagger Cast Using BEESWAX, CLAY, and BRONZE (Inspired by Ancient Mesopotamia Royalty)

I "travel" back to Ancient Mesopotamia to cast and craft a bronze blade built for royalty! This dagger meant for a King was furnaced in a clay draft kiln, molded from beeswax and finally casted from bronze! I modeled this cast off of research and images I found from the ancient Mesopotamian city of Ur and what their royalty was often buried with.

    Two things, not only could he have just redone it, but that "broken crucible with solidified bronze," wasn't solidified, it's called slag, which can either be made up of imperfections in the original metal, oxidation that's formed over the top upon exposure to air, or a mixture of the two. As a matter of fact, more than likely it was all that charcoal that he accidentally poured into the crucible. Underneath was still molten.

    ​@@impishspectre5805 There is little to no fully melted bronze in that crucible, I can tell. There certainly isn't enough to get a pour like what we see after the jump cut. And if they had redone they would have shown it being redone. BUT it's fine. Melting bronze not using modern methods is technically challenging and they had a deadline to meet. Honestly it'd probably take them 6 months of trying over and over to get a successful pour.

    I thought so too, i tend not to be this cynical but it seemed to me like they cut to a pour from a modern backup kiln. That bronze looked cherry red by the time they got ready to pour it and then it cut to a close up shot where you couldnt see anything but the mold with bright yellow bronze being cast. oh and also clay appeared around the rim all of a sudden.

    you have to bake the clay mold in a fire to get out the last bit of water in it so it doesn't expand rapidly when you poor in the metal, which is how the cracks form and eventually how it shatters

    Clay is a hydrated compound. That's party why just letting it dry in air still caused it to bubble and give off gas when used to cast. Firing the clay drives off the moisture and makes it stronger and more heat resistant. Clay and pottery is similar to glass, and is interesting to learn about because of how much there is to it.

    I love this rebooted series, especially the focus on how much time people in the past spent on these mundane tasks! One thought I had: the cost estimates could be better. Most skilled laborers would not make the minimum wage, and I would bet that you could fetch above minimum on the labor market yourself, so it's a poor approximation for what the "cost" of producing these things would have been in ancient times. My suggestion would be median wage: the median income in 2017 was $47,060, which works out to about $23.53 per hour, which I think would be more relatable to most people in the US

    @@budmeister Nah, he actually did fake the casting. Look at the other popular post that should be near the top of the comments for you. It gives a description of why it didn't work as shown in the video. I had already noticed this too. It takes quite a bit of metal to fill a mold that size and he just didn't have enough in the tiny chunk of crucible left. Nowhere near it and it probably wasn't molten any more anyway.
